http://www.kabatdatabase.com/

The Kabat Database determines the combining site of antibodies based on the available amino acid sequences. The precise delineation of complementarity determining regions (CDR) of both light and heavy chains provides the first example of how properly aligned sequences can be used to derive structural and functional information of biological macromolecules. The Kabat database now includes nucleotide sequences, sequences of T cell receptors for antigens (TCR), major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II molecules, and other proteins of immunological interest. The Kabat Database searching and analysis tools package is an ASP.NET web-based portal containing lookup tools, sequence matching tools, alignment tools, length distribution tools, positional correlation tools and much more. The searching and analysis tools are custom made for the aligned data sets contained in both the SQL Server and ASCII text flat file formats. The searching and analysis tools may be run on a single PC workstation or in a distributed environment. The analysis tools are written in ASP.NET and C# and are available in Visual Studio .NET 2003/2005/2008 formats. The Kabat Database was initially started in 1970 to determine the combining site of antibodies based on the available amino acid sequences at that time. Bence Jones proteins, mostly from human, were aligned, using the now-known Kabat numbering system, and a quantitative measure, variability, was calculated for every position. Three peaks, at positions 24-34, 50-56 and 89-97, were identified and proposed to form the complementarity determining regions (CDR) of light chains. Subsequently, antibody heavy chain amino acid sequences were also aligned using a different numbering system, since the locations of their CDRs (31-35B, 50-65 and 95-102) are different from those of the light chains. CDRL1 starts right after the first invariant Cys 23 of light chains, while CDRH1 is eight amino acid residues away from the first invariant Cys 22 of heavy chains. During the past 30 years, the Kabat database has grown to include nucleotide sequences, sequences of T cell receptors for antigens (TCR), major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II molecules and other proteins of immunological interest. It has been used extensively by immunologists to derive useful structural and functional information from the primary sequences of these proteins.

http://athina.biol.uoa.gr/SecStr/

A tool to Predict the Secondary Structure of a protein from its amino acid sequence alone. The SecStr package uses six different secondary structure prediction methods (Nagano, Garnier et al., Burges et al., Chou and Fasman , Lim and Dufton and Hider). The results of those methods are combined into a Joint Prediction Histogram (JPH) as described by Hamodrakas, 1988 and Hamodrakas et al., 1982. As previously mentioned, the SecStr package contains computer programs making use of the secondary structure prediction methods of Nagano, Garnier et al., Burges et al., Chou and Fasman, Lim and Dufton and Hider. These programs were written in Fortran. The results of individual prediction methods are combined as described by Hamodrakas (1988), using a Perl program, to produce joint prediction histograms (JPH), for three types of secondary structure, which may be presented separately on a Java Applet. The output may be given either in text or graphics mode. For the latter a Java capable browser is required.

http://bioinformatics.biol.uoa.gr/CW-PRED/

A web tool for the prediction of Cell Wall-Anchored Proteins in Gram+ Bacteria. Gram-positive bacteria have surface proteins that are often implicated in virulence. A group of extracellular proteins attached to the cell wall contains an LPXTG-like motif that is target for cleavage and covalent coupling to peptidoglycan by sortase enzymes. A new Hidden Markov Model (HMM), an extension to the HMM model from Litou et al., http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18464329, was developed for predicting the LPXTG and LPXTG-like cell-wall proteins of Gram-positive bacteria. An analysis of 177 completely sequenced genomes has been performed as well. We identified in total 1456 cell-wall proteins, from which 1283 have the LPXTG motif, 39 the NPXTG motif, 53 have the LPXTA and 81 the LAXTG motif.

http://athina.biol.uoa.gr/orienTM/

A computer software that utilizes an initial definition of transmembrane segments to predict the topology of transmembrane proteins from their sequence. It uses position-specific statistical information for amino acid residues which belong to putative non-transmembrane segments derived from a statistical analysis of non-transmembrane regions of membrane proteins stored in the SwissProt database. Its accuracy compares well with that of other popular existing methods.

http://athina.biol.uoa.gr/bioinformatics/mcmbb/

A web tool used in the discrimination of beta-barrel outer membrane proteins with a Markov chain model. MCMBB is a fast algorithm, which discriminates beta-barrel outer membrane proteins from globular proteins and from alpha-helical membrane proteins. The algorithm is based on a 1st order Markov Chain model, which captures the alternating pattern of hydrophilic-hydrophobic residues occurring in the membrane-spanning beta-strands of beta-barrel outer membrane proteins. The model achieves high accuracy in discriminating outer membrane proteins, since it can discriminate beta-barrel outer membrane with a correct classification rate of 90.08% and the globular proteins with a correct classification rate of 92.67%. When submitting alpha-helical membrane proteins, the method shows an accuracy of 100%. A score greater than zero, indicates that the protein is more likely to be a beta-barrel outer membrane protein, whereas a result lower than zero, indicates that the protein is probable not a beta-barrel. You may enter up to 1000 sequences in Fasta format.

http://athina.biol.uoa.gr/bioinformatics/waveTM/

A web tool for the prediction of transmembrane segments in alpha-helical membrane proteins. A sliding window of 20 residues is used in order to calculate an average residue hydrophobicity profile, using a hydrophobicity scale. Discrete Wavelet Transform is applied on the average residue hydrophobicity signal and the different frequency coefficients produced are adaptively thresholded so that a denoised signal is reconstructed. A dynamic programming algorithm processes the denoised signal to provide the optimal model for the number, the length and the location of membrane-spanning segments. The end points of the predicted segments are extended to include flanking hydrophobic residues. Topology prediction can also be obtained in conjunction with OrienTM (Liakopoulos et al, 2001). Analysis of a non-redundant test set, provides a ~95% per segment accuracy and ~90% per residue accuracy. Now, you can: * Run waveTM on a sequence * Browse the results obtained with the algorithm * View additional material concerning the hydrophobicity scale

http://bioinformatics.biol.uoa.gr/PRED-TMBB/

A web tool, based on a Hidden Markov Model, capable of predicting the transmembrane beta-strands of the gram-negative bacteria outer membrane proteins, and of discriminating such proteins from water-soluble ones when screening large datasets. The model is trained in a discriminative manner, aiming at maximizing the probability of the correct prediction rather than the likelihood of the sequences. The training is performed on a non-redundant database consisting of 16 outer membrane proteins (OMP''s) with their structures known at atomic resolution. We show that we can achieve predictions at least as good comparing with other existing methods, using as input only the amino-acid sequence, without the need of evolutionary information included in multiple alignments. The method is also powerful when used for discrimination purposes, as it can discriminate with a high accuracy the outer membrane proteins from water soluble in large datasets, making it a quite reliable solution for screening entire genomes. This web-server can help you run a discriminating process on any amino-acid sequence and thereafter localize the transmembrane strands and find the topology of the loops.

http://athina.biol.uoa.gr/PRED-TMR2/

A web server that classifies proteins into two classes from their sequences alone: the membrane protein class and the non-membrane protein class. This may be important in the functional assignment and analysis of open reading frames (ORF''s) identified in complete genomes and, especially, those ORF''s that correspond to proteins with unknown function. The network has a simple hierarchical feed-forward topology and a limited number of neurons which makes it very fast. By using only information contained in 11 protein sequences, the method was able to identify, with 100% accuracy, all membrane proteins with reliable topologies collected from several papers in the literature. Applied to a test set of 995 globular, water-soluble proteins, the neural network classified falsely 23 of them in the membrane protein class (97.7% of correct assignment). The method was also applied to the complete SWISS-PROT database with considerable success and on ORF''s of several complete genomes. The neural network developed was associated with the PRED-TMR algorithm (Pasquier,C., Promponas,V.J., Palaios,G.A., Hamodrakas,J.S. and Hamodrakas,S.J., 1999) in a new application package called PRED-TMR2.

http://athina.biol.uoa.gr/PRED-TMR/

A web server that predicts transmembrane domains in proteins using solely information contained in the sequence itself. The algorithm refines a standard hydrophobicity analysis with a detection of potential termini (edges, starts and ends) of transmembrane regions. This allows both to discard highly hydrophobic regions not delimited by clear start and end configurations and to confirm putative transmembrane segments not distinguishable by their hydrophobic composition. The accuracy obtained on a test set of 101 non homologous transmembranes proteins with reliable topologies compares well with that of other popular existing methods. Only a slight decrease in prediction accuracy was observed when the algorithm was applied to all transmembrane proteins of the SwissProt database (release 35).
